CAD

I am currently using the free trial version (EXPRESS) of Mathcad Prime. After converting a file created with the old Mathcad using the "Input/Output" XMCD converter menu, I opened the converted file and tried to copy and paste a table from Excel into the original table, but it is not reflected. During the conversion, a message "To maintain the numerical results of the input table, the table has been converted into a matrix" was displayed. Is this the cause? Could you please tell me the reason and the solution?

Hi ALL,We are hearing and seeing a lot in action from many AI applications. CHAT GPT, Gemini,......I am looking for a AI app that can do a 2D for me from the image. NEED Suggestions on what out there available for this need.See attach as as sample to try on . Pl use to try and send me the output . Appreciate!  THANKS IN Advance guys ! I Love Creo! So much to learn. So little time...

The Mathcad functions matrix, CreateSpace and CreateMesh have a few limitations that led me to create alternatives.   One set of limitations is that the x (& y) ordinates they use are restricted to being linearly spaced (unless using a mapping function in CreateSpace and CreateMesh).  This often proved a nuisance, so (way back in Mathsoft Mathcad v11), I wrote replacements for them that allowed me more control over the x & y coordinates.   Secondly, Mathcad doesn't have a vector counterpart to the function matrix. A simple enough thing to implement.   And, bringing us up to date, CreateSpace and CreateMesh are Premium functions in Mathcad Prime, thus unavailable for Mathcad Express.   With the latter in mind, and noting CreateSpace's use in a recent thread, I thought I'd cobble together a worksheet showing one possible Express implementation of the functions vector, matrix, Vector, and Matrix (the latter two being replacements for CreateSpace and C

Hi everyone,I’m currently exploring how different PTC tools can be leveraged together and had a question regarding potential integration.Has anyone worked with or come across an integration between Mathcad and Windchill Risk and Reliability? Specifically, I’m interested in understanding:Whether there's any native integration or API-based connectivity between the two tools.If it’s possible to embed Mathcad calculations into risk models or reports generated within Windchill Risk and Reliability.Any best practices or workarounds for using outputs from Mathcad (e.g., failure rate calculations, stress analysis, etc.) to support risk and reliability assessments in Windchill.How such an integration (if available) could streamline risk analysis workflows or improve traceability.I’d really appreciate any insights, documentation references, or experiences you can share. Thanks in advance!

HelloI am looking for a way to access and override the content of headers without starting MathCad. This is required for our document management system - once the file is officially issued the document management system needs to override the date, title, etc. I do understand that MathCad files are zipped xml's and I could modify the values in the xml file but the header/footer text content does not seem to be available.  Thank you in advancedMichal

Hello PTC Community, I'm experiencing an issue on some computers where the Creo 11 embedded browser is not functioning correctly. For certain web pages (stored in the hard drive), the browser displays a completely blank white page. When I reload these pages, the correct content appears only briefly—as a quick blink—and then the page goes blank again.Here are some details about the affected systems:Operating System: Windows 11 Enterprise 23H2Creo Version: 11.0.3.0Creo Platform Agent: 1.7.395Creo 11 Platform Services: 1.3.51I have already tried clearing the cache and browsing history within the embedded browser, but the issue persists.Has anyone encountered this problem or can suggest any solutions or troubleshooting steps?I attach a screenshot of the correct rendering of the page, and the blanked one. Thank you in advance for your help!

Dear @KenFarley and @BryantMorgan, With reference to this topic! Is there a way to use Gpost to split an nc file in couple .tap-files?So that Gpost looks for time or length?   I would like to use this information to export an "SET", and then let GPOST split it into different TAP-parts (every tool has then his own NCL-File). That would make the explort of CL-Files easier.. because now we have to calculate every Step one by one becuase the NC-Machines/Worker prefer it that way.

"If these anchor points are cut off by a section, the dimension won't be visible." Reference topic: Hole annotations not showing - PTC Community Is there a way to shift those anchor points to visible section?I have thread hole where one annotation (MAX) is "anchored" to axis of the hole and is visible in any cross section, but the other dimension (MIN) is visible only in correctly oriented cross section, which is not cutting off the anchor points. Is there a way how to swap the anchor points to other side of the design or is it dead end in MBD?

My Mathcad Prime 11 trial period has recently ended, so I've been reviewing how some of my older Mathcad Express (E7 & E10, mostly) worksheets and functions perform under Mathcad Express 11.   While updating an array reshape function, I noticed that the performance was deteriorating as the array size increased.  This in itself wasn't too surprising, but it was a lot slower than I'd have expected from an O(log(n)) algorithm.  A mere 50,000 elements were taking 3 to 4 seconds to vectorize (confusing terminology in Mathcad terms, I know, but it is common in mathematics - see links at the bottom of this post)   reshape, however, used a vec variant to flatten the target array into a vector, before creating a suitably dimensioned array from the resulting vector, and vec proved to be the reason for the performance problem.   vec uses fold to apply a bespoke stacking function to its input argument.  I wondered if there was a means of speeding it up and tried a

How can i change this values by default, i dont want chanfer and i want this value to be 180 by default and not 120. How can i do it?Creo Elements/Direct 20.2.1.0  

I have a user who has MathCAD Prime - 9.0. When they try to launch the program only the splash screen appears and the program doesn't open.If I run as Administrator, it does open.

I bought on 07.07.2025 a Mathcad Prime license, reference no. 508124416, via cleverbridge GmbH.Now I am waiting for the "Fulfillment Confirmation email" from PTC.How can I get my license and download link?

Hello,I am trying trying plot the I/V curve on the graph of the diode model, having as example from "Simulation on Mathcad the SPICE Model of the Diode Dmbr2045mfs.pdf" by Pedro Vitoriano.an somebody help me? Thank you.

HelloI noticed that when navigating through the model, you change what you're looking at by moving the model itself instead of your perspective. Meaning: the camera is fixed, and the only thing that moves is the model.I'm looking for a way to navigate through the model (while using a spacemouse) in such a way that the model stays still, and the only thing that's moving is the camera. Think of it like the model is a building, and I'm changing what I see by flying a drone to see what I want. I've been able to approximate the functionality I'm looking for, but what throws me off the most is that the center of camera rotation is always around an object instead of around the perspective of the camera itself.  I'm using Creo View 10.1 with a SpaceMouseI've tried changing my navigation mode to Catia and PTC CreoI've tried changing my view mode from orthographic to perspectiveI've tried both 3D navigation methods "as defined by the general model" and "explore"I've tried inertial spin

I am looking at updating our old start parts that have Pro/Intralink parameters in them which are useless now that we are in Windchill. I read the steps in Article - CS105842 - How to modify or remove Windchill Parameters in Creo Parametric but the parameters are still locked when I open the files in Creo. Any suggestions on how to get clean start parts. I have thought of creating new ones, but we have a lot of parameters that would need added. I saw an article that said ModelCheck can delete unwanted parameters, but it did not address the issue of locked parameters. Will ModelCheck remove locked parameters? Creo 10.0.4.0 and Windchill  13.0.2.0  

Reference topic link @simran  I also have the same problem, have you found a solution to delete the useless BASELINES?Thank you and good day.    

I noticed recently ( I think it has been around awhile) that when you delete an entity that is patterned, it does not delete all the dimension of the pattern.   A part is patterned:   A family table is made:   I renamed the dimension (distance apart and qty) to try and avoid confusion: Next I deleted the part that was patterned (which deletes the pattern too).   But the family table still shows the qty (and on a different one, it didn't get rid of the dimension):   Is this a glitch?

I am getting frustrated finding good tutorials for Schematics.  I need to generate a Wiring Diagram(s) for a test rack.  I have to generate multiple complex custom components (artifacts?) with large numbers of connections.  I have done the artwork and have it in .DXF format.  I have fought through and figured out how to load the DXF's into the editor, but I need how to figure out how to take the DXF and do pin assignments and make it a reusable stand alone component to put into a library for reuse.  Does PTC have any online tutorial for Schematic?  I am running 10.0.0.  I find tutorials for some parts of this but they are years old and the instructions don't match the new rev.  This ain't my first rodeo, but the inability to find instructions, or tutorials has me frustrated.

Created a sheetmetal part master view is the flat pattern.  Created a simplified rep in the bent state.  When we assembly the part in the 3D assembly the assembled components do not update to the bent state.  We need one model to represent the component and allow the flat pattern to be used in the drawing.  Our business has only 1 part number for the manufacture of this component.  We do not want to create another CAD PART  ----   BRAKET_FLAT.prt.  This created unnecessary data in our system and complicate Windchill by dragging along unnecessary objects.

Hello,I am a student who uses PTC Mathcad Prime 11.0 for my coursework; however, starting today, the program will no longer open/run. I have tried restarting, uninstalling, and all the basic troubleshooting. After hours, I am at a loss, and this is the only way I could find to contact any sort of customer support at this time. Everything else implies some invalid product codes or says I need a support plan. I have purchased Mathcad Prime and have been using it normally for almost a month, so I am wondering what all this is about. If you need any specific info, please let me know.
